Entertainment.

"Be not f0rgetful TO entertain
strangers for thereby some have enter
tanned angels unawares.' This
thorough apostolic statement is known
to every student Of theology, and it
there is hospitality anywhere it should
certainly be found among evangelical
clergymen. But all great men have
their pecularities, and language is diff
ferently understood It would there
fore not surprise our readers if they
should hear venerable but somewhat
stoical monk frltter at the presence of
another monk within his domain, or a
shylock toll from early morn until dewy
eve toprevent a shekel being distracted
from what may become his strong box
TIPS lonely to see the stranger halted
and Tested under the porch OF the famil-
lar hanse, but disgusting when tho re-
ligioh ''that thinketh no evil, and is
kindf' expresses itself in secret assassi-
natioh Of the wayfarer unable to defend

wool, and sooner or later birds come

Good Work.
At the last session. of the board of COM
missioners Abe Hills license was re-
voked. The following from Col. Til.
ford no doubt had much to do with the
action of the board. The commissioners
are to be commended for their course in
the matter, and Col. Tilford has the
thanks of the Sturgis people for his
efforts to remove the place i'm question:
from public highway:
GENTLEMEN: have the honor to sub
NIT the following for your consideration:
There is at present q most disreputable
saloon and house of prostitution, being
run by one Abe Hill on the only prac-
ticable road between this post and Stur-
gis, d. T., just outside of the line Of the
military reservation, which is an insult
to the post itself and to all the respect
able people who pass along said road.
Since the house was opened it has
been impossible for ladies to pass with
out being subject to open insult by the
disreputable characters continually
lounging about the house and the road
in the vicinity thereof.
also call your attention to. the fact
that in building the road upon which
this is located, and as far up as a saloon
known as Parham's, the commanding
officer of this post gave assistance with
troop labor and material at hand, SO
that it seems to me to be just that the
people compelled to reside there should
be given little consideration for work
done off the reservation; which, of
course, was voluntary on their part.
I, therefore, as commanding officer of
this post, request that the license OF this
Abe Hill, or whoever is, or may be, the
proprietor of this or any similar disrepu-
table establishment that may be opened
on said road, be revoked or refused, and
that such other action be taken as by
your honorable body is deemed neces-
sary to protect people at this post and
elsewhere when passing along said road,
from being in future subjected to such
insults as have occurred in the past and
are daily occurring at present at said
place.
I am, gentlemen, very respectfully,
your obedient servant.

Lieut.. Col. 7th Cav.

The English gentlemen who examined
the tin properties in the Southern Hills
now entertain fears that they will be I'M
able to control the markets of the world,
SO great is the quantity Of tin known to
exist in the Black Hills country. From

that the Harvey Peak company bonded
contiguous properties in the sum of $780,

most vehemently sought On the other
hand, there is no question that exceed
iurly strong local and national reasons
why the law should take It's course ere
being placed before the Governor, who
fluids himself in n position Of great en-
barmssmeut. But he viii prove equal
to the occasion.
Richard James OGlesby, Governor Of
Illinois, was born in the State of ken
lucky in 1922. Like almost all of our
successful western statesmen, be began
life IN en- humble sphere. and has made
his own way by diDt of perseverance. IN
tegrity, and business capac,ty. While
living on q farm and working Gs q car
penter at Decatur, Illinois, he studied
law, BEGINNING practice at Sullivan IN
1915. He served through the Mexican
war. holding lieutenant's commission.
in 1917 he returned TO Decatur ana took
course OF law study in Louisville.
General Oglesby was an original
"49er,' having been attracted 10y the
California gold excitement, bui returned
to Decatur after two years life of adyen-
ture.
After some experience in local and
State politics "Dick Ogiesby, as DE- Is
still airr ctioneiely called by his political
admirers, ran for Congress IN 1888, but
unsucccssiully. He WAS member Of
the State Senate in 1866.
st the outbreak OF the war bee
resigned his seat and accepted the posi-
ton of colonel of the EiGhta Illinois
volunteers. At Fort Donaldson he COM
mauded brigade, and for his aailau;ry
aud geDeraiship was promoted - the
rank of Brigaditr- General Of volunteers.
he still further enhanced his IepUta.ion
at Shiloh Tor Pittsburgh Landing,
where he was one Of General Grant S
most efficient subordinate commanders.
At Corinth he aided Halieck and Rose
Grams and shared the honors Of the
Confederate defeat. 4 wound received
in this battle rendered him for some
time unfit for duty until the following
spring. He then returned 70 the army,
and WAS assigned to the Sixteenth army
corps as major-eeneral This commits
sion be resigned in Nay, 1861.
In November of the same year Gene
raj Oglesby was elected Governor Of the
State by an overwhelming Republican
majority. Reflections followed, and ne
remained in Office continuously from
1860 to 1863 Once again, III 1872, he
was chosen to the same high honor.
During all Of these years he retained in
the highest possible measure the conf
dence and respect of the people. An
honor considered by most even higher
than that of the gubernatorial chair was
accorded him the following wear 1873),
when he was elected United States
Senator.
Ex-Governor Oglesby is a sturdy,
common-sense sort Of a man, very popu
lar with the farmers and country people,

on Wednesday morning an express
train on the B. Il O.. X. Il. dashed in
to the signal tower of the road at
Washington d. C.. at the speed of fifty
miles an hour, completely wrecking
the tower, engine and cars and wound
ing sixteen persons. When entering
the city the engineer tried to put on
the air breakes, but found to his hor-
ror that they would not work. Then
he whistled for the brakemen to put
on brakes, but they either misunder-
stood or did have time to do ANYTHING
as the train still Numbered on. The
engineer then climbed upon the EN-
CINE to open the steam box, but with
out avail. The engine jumped the
track and ploughed through the dirt
and mud a distance Of $50 #. rolling
completely over. One car was crushed
and nearly buried under the tracks
and timbers of the demolished build
ing. Two sleeping coaches and one
passenger coach remained on the track.
The mail cal, the express car and the
baggage a were rolled over and their
sides were crushed. The roof of one
car protruded from the ruins OF the
building.
